Intuition

Cultivating inner knowing

A question currently animating me about the inner life/spirit is:

How can I maintain my mental and physical wellbeing when in new environments?

A question currently animating me about the outer world/universe/multiverse is:

What are the limits of what communication can do?

Yoga

A moment I noticed my inner light kindled this month was:

When I officially accepted to stay with a host family in China for 3 months next term, I hadn't felt this kind of tingling excitement feeling since I accepted to go to UWC Canada.

A moment I noticed my inner light dwindled this month was:

The days I didn't do sport or eat well/healthily.

October 31, 2025

Courage

Aligning action

Assumptions I'm examining right now are:

Time/Attention

October 31, 2025

I originally assumed:

I used to think I had to follow a typical productive schedule, wake early work, ect.

October 31, 2025

These assumptions are changing:

Now I am finding my natural sleep rhythm and letting sunlight wake me up naturally, I am keen to fully adapt to natures rhythm during my hiking/camping retreat.

October 31, 2025

A moment I stepped out of my comfort zone this month was:

Reaching out to very distant people I knew for help/knowledge. I didn't even know if they would remember me so I was a bit apprehensive but all went well!

October 31, 2025

Compassion

Engaged Empathy

Something that is helping me build trusting relationships here is:

The odd call after some sessions because the time difference works.

Meeting up with and old friend in his country.

When I first got off the train in Scotland I immediately heard a familiar voice, I turned around to look for my friend. It took me a second to realise I was in Scotland and everybody spoke with a funny Scottish accent, not just him.

During the weekend I stayed with him I got a glimpse of his daily life and a cool tour of his Uni. We managed to fit in a small hike despite the crazy winds from the storm that coincided with my visit!

Going to a free art gallery with UWC friends

My friend Anna invited me to join her and Cecilia to go to the V&A museum in London! It was great to get out of the house and have fun with friends. We also actually saw items in the museum that we had studied together in History class last year so was fun to remember those memories. Also Cecilia gave me top tier advice for when I go to her city, Shanghai.
